Title: SOLVED: Connector from custom profile rendered as Profile::Stereotype
Post by: Mauricio Moya (Arquesoft) on July 28, 2018, 05:38:53 am
I have a MDG based on a profile containing only connectors. When I create a new connector between elements, the stereotype in the connector is shown as <<MyProfile::MyStereotype>> instead of only <<MyStereotype>>.

Previous versions of MDG (a year ago) had generated <<MyStereotype>> connectors. It is supposed we have not made any change in the profile definitions, but now the connectors are generated as <<MyProfile::MyStereotype>>.

Any ideas what could be changed? (I've already checked any custom stereotype in the UML Types window.)

Have you run a file comparator (such as BeyondCompare) over the two versions?  Where things break for us, we carefully compare the working vs non-working version and try to "suss out" what broke.

Try it on a new model with no other MDG's or add-ins enabled.

The problem is the size of the model. It is a DMBS based model and it is about 1Gb in size.

Great idea! I have just test it in a new EAP file and it works well. So, I rechecked the original model and I found some stereotypes (in UML Types) with the name "MyProfile::MyStereotype". So I just delete them and this solved the issue.
